Problem Girls Strategy

Two couriers in light blue uniforms walked in, which made him quite unhappy: "What's going on? How did you get in?"

"Didn't you let us in? The president of Tobin Electric Railway Group." Jiang Zao's frivolous voice tickled Sakaki Michiaki's nerves as he tried hard to suppress his anger.

Another courier took off his hat, which made Sakaki Michiaki ecstatic: "Yumiko! Are you finally willing to return to the main family?"

Yes, Jiang Zao, through his own prepared backup plan and the cooperation of a kind-hearted person, successfully brought Yumiko Sakaki into the Tobin Group Building, just to give her a chance to confront her father.

"No! I'm here to negotiate with you. I'm much more comfortable at school than at the Sakaki family."

"I'll keep you by my side and educate you this time."

"Have you forgotten what you did to me and my mother?" Sakaki Yumiko roared angrily: "It would be best if a place like the Sakaki family were destroyed!"

"What are you talking about? You know what I have done for you, the heir so far..."

"Don't lie, you've never thought about me. You're just haunted by the curse of the Sakaki family! I don't want to become like you, even if I die!"

"Just stop it..." Sakaki Michiaki stood up from his office chair as if he had been poked in a sore spot, veins popping out on his head: "Do you think you're the only one hurt?"

"How can the Great Dongbin, which my father entrusted to me, decline because of the willfulness of a little girl like you!"

"I will not let you control me. I will speak and act according to my own will. I will not be your puppet."

Sakaki Michiaki was stunned. Puppet? His own daughter actually said that she was his puppet?

"Dad, although you never understood me, I didn't try to understand you either." Yumiko Sakaki took out a handmade knife from her pocket with a miserable smile. Even if she communicated with him face to face, he still couldn't understand her at all: "I never existed in the first place, just treat it as such."

The tip of the handmade knife flashed with a cold light, and Yumiko Sakaki stabbed her neck, which was always raised proudly like a swan. Perhaps from the beginning, the knife should have been aimed at her neck, not the hair that was cut off to look like a boy...

"Yumiko!" Sakaki Michiaki was terrified and watched the tip of the knife getting closer and closer to his daughter's fragile neck.

"Puchi..." Jiang Zao stretched out his right hand like lightning and firmly held the blade of the hand-made knife in his hand. Blood dripped from the cut wound onto Sakaki Yumiko's collar. He did not expect that Sakaki Yumiko, who had changed into a courier's uniform, would still carry her hand-made knife, and he did not expect that she would commit suicide so easily.

This handmade knife is your real body, right? Didn't we agree that even if the negotiation fails, you can just give it to me?

After experiencing this thrilling scene, Sakaki Michiaki's legs became weak and his back was covered with cold sweat. He supported himself on the desk with his hands: "Don't do anything stupid, Yumiko. If you leave me like Misako, I will really be alone."

“Since you don’t want to inherit the Sakaki family’s business, then leave with the man next to you.” After saying this, Sakaki Michiaki seemed to have aged a few years, and the majestic aura he maintained in the past was no longer there: “As long as... one of your children with him can have the surname Sakaki, it’s fine.”

……

The notice of closure of Mihama Academy was cancelled, and everything returned to normal as if nothing had ever happened. However, a big event happened at the Tohama Electric Railway Group. Sakaki Michiaki announced that as the president, he would officially step down in three years and would no longer hold any position in the group. When asked about the reason, he just said that he needed time to slowly understand the words someone left for him.

Jiang Zao no longer has the task of being a personal bodyguard, but he still accompanies Yumiko Sakaki to the river to sketch.

The breeze gently brushed across Yumiko Sakaki's delicate cheeks, and her black hair was brought to her face by the playful wind. She tucked the messy hair behind her ears. The sound of the stream flowing over the stones sounded like a cheerful performance.

"Who the hell are you?"

In response to Yumiko Sakaki's question, Jiang Zao answered as usual: "I'm just a student."

"Hehe..." As if she had guessed Jiang Zao's answer, Yumiko Sakaki smiled brightly: "I can basically guess it."

As the younger brother of the talented painter Kazami Ikki, Jiang Zao could naturally see that unlike her previous paintings, every stroke of Yumiko Sakaki's painting now seemed lively and full of vitality.

"Your brushstrokes are different from before."

"is it?"

"You've become quite charming, Sakaki-san."

Yumiko Sakaki bit her lower lip shyly, her cheeks seemed to be covered with a thin layer of rouge: "Are you still calling me Sakaki-san?"

"Then...Yumiko."

"Yeah." Her smile was as light as a bird's, cheerful and free. The bird in the cage was finally given the chance to fly freely.

……

My name is Komine Yuki, and I'm a first-year student at Mihama Academy. Recently, I've noticed that some of my good friends have become more cheerful in their smiles, and they no longer seem to be covered with a shadow as before. I feel like I've completely gotten rid of the nightmare from the past.

I think it must be related to the boy named Jiang Zao. In fact, I also want to change like them, but... can someone like me really be allowed to make changes?

Chapter 31 She Received a Belated Blessing

"Recently, fewer and fewer children can count to 100 in the bathtub."

"That's right, this is the consequence of a relaxed education. Children are even less patient!"

On TV, two experts were pointing fingers and talking about the practice of relaxed education.

Ruchao Shicai was immediately furious and was quite disdainful of the two people's comments on the screen: "It's not because I like it that I'm going easy on myself. Axing, we have to be women who can count to ten thousand in the bathtub!"

"Yeah." Xiaoling Xing nodded in response to Irisuo Shicai's joke.

When it was dinner time, Zhou Fang Tianyin saw that Xiaoling Xing had stayed in the bathroom for a long time and had no intention of coming out. She pushed open the bathroom door which was full of fog and she couldn't see inside at all. She found that Xiaoling Xing had already fainted in the hot water in the bathtub.

This scared her so much that she hurriedly took Xiao Lingxing out of the bathtub and changed her clothes. She called Jiang Zao to help her take Xiao Lingxing to the bedroom.

"Really, Shicai, you know Xiaoxing's personality, so don't say weird things to her." Zhou Hou Tianyin figured out the whole story and knocked on Shicai with his hand slightly punishingly.

"Wow~Axing!" Irusho Shicai cried as if Xiaoling Xing was terminally ill and beyond cure. In fact, she just fainted. Zhoufang Tianyin was applying ice and a towel on her forehead to cool her down.

The next morning, Xiaoling Xing was no longer in danger and Ruchao Shicai threw herself into her arms crying.

"Xing, I'm sorry!"

"Are you feeling alright now?"

"Thanks to everyone, I'm completely fine now. I'm really sorry for causing you to worry."

"Hey, where are the people from Jiangzao?"

"It seems like he said he had something important to do and asked for leave."

……

"The final exams are coming soon. I hope everyone will study hard and don't fail." Chizuru Tachibana gave special instructions to the students before leaving the get out of class.

"Ah!" Matsushima rumpled her hair into a bird's nest in annoyance. She was not good at studying and always had a headache when she had exams. If she failed the exam, she would have to stay in school during the summer vacation to receive remedial lessons. She didn't want such a thing!

"By the way, Yuki..." Matsushima Man seemed to have thought of a good idea, and turned to look at Xiaoling Yuki who was sitting at the back: "Let's make the exam disappear. If you are so capable, even making the exam disappear should be no problem, right?"

"Huh!?" It was obviously the first time that Xiaoling Yuki had encountered such a strange request. He felt that it was a bit inappropriate, but he could not refuse Matsushima Mitsuru's request. His eyes suddenly became vague, and he looked left and right with an indecisive expression.

It was Suho Ten'ne who slapped Matsushima on the head and stopped her ridiculous idea: "Don't say such ridiculous things and make Xiaoxing embarrassed."

"It hurts!" Matsushima Mitsuru covered the back of his injured head and muttered, "I didn't really want her to do it, it was just a joke."

"No, please leave it to me, Miss Man." Xiaoling Yuki accepted Matsushima Man's ridiculous request with a serious and determined look, which stunned everyone else in the classroom and they didn't know how she was going to complete this task.

Jiang Zao walked along the path paved with lights at night and returned to the student dormitory. He saw Zhou Fang Tianyin with a troubled look on his face, knocking on Xiaoling Xing's bedroom door: "Xiao Xing! Dinner is ready."

Jiang Zao asked her, "What's wrong?"

"Jiang Zao!" Zhou Fang Tianyin immediately told Jiang Zao what happened in the classroom today.

Jiang Zao comforted her: "That's right, don't worry, I told her to say that in the classroom, I won't tell you the reason for now."

Yumiko Sakaki, who was also concerned about Komine Yuki's unusual behavior, crossed her arms and leaned against the wall and asked, "Is it the same situation as when Matsushima-san was there?"

"Just understand it roughly like this. I asked for leave today because of this matter."

"I understand. I won't ask any more questions, but I hope you can promise me that you won't let Xiaoling-san get into any danger."

"Leave it to me, Yumiko."

"Yumi..." Yumiko Sakaki still hasn't gotten used to Jiang Zao calling her so intimately. Her pretty face turned slightly red, a cloud of steam rushed up to her head, and she ran back to the bedroom with messy steps.

"Then I won't ask anymore. As a sister, I can't always question my brother's decisions." After saying this, Zhou Fang Tianyin left.

Don't worry, Xiaoling Xing just wants to realize the dream of thousands of students blowing up the school. It's not a dangerous thing.

Jiang Zao looked at the two people's backs as they left, and complained silently in his heart.

In the following days, Xiaoling Xing often dozed off in class, which was completely inconsistent with her behavior as a good student as a class monitor. She couldn't hold it any longer, so she simply asked for leave and didn't come to class.

Even on the day when Jiang Zao was going to make desserts for everyone, there was no sign of him. Matsushima Man began to regret agreeing to Jiang Zao and making some strange requests to Xiaoling Xing. Her dissatisfaction with him turned into appetite, and she decided to quickly finish the pudding in front of her.

"Just give the remaining two to Qianhe." Jiang Zao packed two puddings separately, held them in his hands and prepared to go to the principal's office.

"Why can Chizuru Chizuru eat two portions every time?" Irisuo Shicai held a plastic fork in her mouth, envious and jealous of Chizuru Tachibana who could eat two portions of dessert, and her white teeth rubbed against the fork.

"Who made her the principal?" Jiang Zao left after leaving this sentence.

Xiaoling Xing stood in the dark bedroom, repeating a sentence in front of the mirror.

"You must be a good and obedient child..."

……

Until the day before the final exam, Xiaoling Xing did not come to class. In the late nights recently, Jiang Zao followed her and watched her explore the layout of the teaching building and place the homemade explosives she collected information from the Internet in various secret locations.

Each explosive is tied to a timer. As long as he presses the controller in his hand tonight, after the ten-minute countdown, Xiaoling Yuki will be able to complete Matsushima Mitsuru's seemingly ridiculous and impossible request.

As long as the school is blown up, exams will naturally no longer exist, right?

Without any hesitation, Xiaoling Xing pressed the red switch on the bomb controller in his hand. With a ticking sound, the red countdown on the timer began to decrease second by second.

Just when she was sure that no accidents would happen and was about to retreat from the classroom, Jiang Zao's figure appeared in the corridor illuminated by moonlight.

"Jiang Zao!? Why are you here?"

"I thought that the semester was almost over, but we hadn't done any activities together yet, so I called them over to play a test of courage." Jiang Zao looked confused as to why I couldn't be here.

"No, it's very dangerous here, quickly notify everyone to leave!" Xiaoling Xing's face turned pale in an instant, his eyes were filled with fear and panic, his hand holding the controller was shaking, and his lips were trembling.

She was only thinking about how to blow up the school, and did not even bother to design a stop function for the timers on the bombs. In other words, her actions could potentially kill everyone there.

Since no one other than Jiang Zao has been seen, there should still be time for everyone to leave the teaching building, Xiaoling Xing comforted herself. She looked at the timer on the explosives placed on the desk. The scarlet numbers made her feel desperate.

"0:05"

"Jiang Zao, run away!" Xiao Lingxing pushed down the desk and threw himself on the explosives, hoping to use his body to protect Jiang Zao from the damage of the explosion.

With the crisp sound of the timer ticking, the countdown returned to zero. Xiaoling Xing closed her eyes tightly and knelt on the ground holding the explosives tightly. The explosion she imagined did not come yet, or was she already dead?

"Don't worry. I tampered with your bomb. It can't be detonated by the timer. I have to say that you are really amazing to be able to achieve this level just by self-study."

Jiang Zao's words were like pulling a drowning person out of the water, causing Xiaoling Xing to gasp for breath. At the same time, under the moonlight, a pool of transparent liquid quickly spread from under her maid skirt.

"I'm sorry, I think I scared you too much."

Jiang Zao faced the window and looked out at the night sky. Behind him, Xiao Ling Xing was changing into a sports suit. Her wet maid outfit and underwear were thrown on the desk beside her.

"A few days ago, I went to the park where I first met you and found your uncle. He told me about the accident that happened to your parents."

"Yes..." When talking about this, Xiaoling Xing gently closed his eyes, as if he was reminiscing, but also as if he was escaping.

Xiaoling Xing's family originally ran a small factory. Her parents loved her very much, but once the factory work became busy, they had no time to be with Xiaoling Xing. She met Jiang Zao as a child during that period without her parents' company.

Time passed and it was the day of Xiaoling Xing's tenth birthday. Her parents decided to take a day off to accompany her for her birthday. However, Xiaoling Xing, who had long been resentful of her parents for not being with her for a long time, quarreled with them and ran to the park where she often played alone.

Just as she was sitting on the swing, regretting her behavior and shedding tears, she heard her parents' anxious calls. She happily responded and ran towards her parents. Her parents were so overjoyed to find their daughter who had run away in anger that they did not pay attention to the traffic lights on the side of the road and ran to the middle of the zebra crossing to welcome their daughter home.

The result, of course, was that he was hit head-on by a speeding truck.

"My mother lay in the hospital and never woke up again, and my father..." Xiaoling Xing's expression was painful and sad, as if shrouded in a haze: "Because of my willfulness, they met with an accident, so I must be a good child, a good and obedient child."

"When Ma Zi was taking care of me, he once said that children who are too honest and obedient are heartbreaking to look at. Your parents must have been trying hard to hold back their love for you during the time you were lonely. In the end, they chose to put you first. Come back with me tomorrow and you may find the answer there."

Jiang Zao gently placed his hand on Xiaoling Xing's head and stroked it slowly: "It's great that you have worked hard to get to this point, Xiaoxing."

"Woo..." Xiao Lingxing choked and buried her head in Jiang Zao's solid chest, sobbing silently.

After that, Jiang Zao took advantage of a fireworks show arranged outside and detonated the explosives piled up from the teaching building on the playground. Although a big hole was blown in the playground, it was not something Jiang Zao needed to worry about, so he left it to Chizuru Ju to handle.

The next day, Jiang Zao brought Xiao Lingxing to the factory her parents once opened, and used the key given by her uncle to open the door that had been closed for seven years.

At the end of the factory is the wall decorated by Xiaoling Xing's parents for her tenth birthday, as well as a long-delayed birthday greeting letter.

“Thank you:

Happy tenth birthday to you,

May your future be happy,

May you always keep smiling,

This is our wish for you to be named Xing.
